1 Extract of Draft Minutes, Plannin2 Commission Meetin2, June 5, 2002: 2 3 e. Plannin2 File 3400: Request by Robert Wilson for a variance to 4 Section 1004.04D5 (Minimum Yard Requirements - Front Yard Setback) to 5 allow the replacement of an existing carport and deck with an attached 6 garage with living area above for property at 3107 West Owasso Boulevard. 7 8 Chairman Duncan opened the hearing and requested City Planner Thomas 9 Paschke provide a summary of the project report dated June 5, 2002. 10 11 Robert Wilson has submitted an application for a 13 foot variance to Section 12 1004.02D5 (Yard Requirements - Front yard Setback) to allow the replacement 13 of an existing carport with an attached two stall garage and living space ( above) 14 and a variance to Section 602.02 (Parking on Boulevard Prohibited) at 3107 West 15 Owasso Boulevard. 16 17 Robert Wilson currently has a carport that lies approximately 23 feet from the 18 front property line. This location (non-conforming to Code) is not uncommon 19 for the homes and detached accessory buildings that lie along this stretch of 20 Owasso Boulevard. 21 22 In April, 2002, Mr. Wilson applied for a building permit to replace their carport 23 with a two stall ground level attached garage and a second story living space that 24 would lie 17 feet from the front property line or a 13 foot encroachment into the 25 required front yard setback. 26 27 Thomas Paschke provided letters and comments to the Chair for the record.

He noted that Mr. Wilson 38 is also trying to reduce the driveway slope. 39 40 Deb Bloom, Assistant Public Works Director, noted the steep slope, and this is a 41 concern and can be corrected. Her only concern was obstruction of the pathway 42 and roadway and those have been resolved. 43 44 Member Cunningham asked if the house roofline would change? (No). 45 46 Chair Duncan closed the hearing since there were no further comments. 47 48 Member Mulder stated the challenge is the setback; the issue is that more space 49 which could be added on the rear (west) side of the house rather than east side. 50 51 Thomas Paschke explained that the living area sits further back from the front
